What Sociedad Agrícola Drokasa S.A. does

Agrokasa (Sociedad Agrícola Drokasa S.A.) is a privately held Peruvian agro-export company founded in 1995 and headquartered in Lima, Peru. The company cultivates, packs, and exports four fresh produce categories — avocado, table grape, green asparagus, and blueberry — across four farms totaling more than 4,400 hectares in Barranca, Ica, and Pisco. Operations span the full vertical from production through packing at six facilities (PELAC, PV1, PV2, PESU) with combined daily throughput exceeding 730 tonnes, and finished product is shipped to international fresh produce importers and distributors in more than 50 countries across the Americas, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Oceania. The company is privately held under Grupo HAME, one of Latin America's largest agro-industrial conglomerates, which acquired Agrokasa in 2023 and merged sister company Agrícola Los Andenes into it in 2024.

Agrokasa's technical backbone rests on modern agricultural production systems rather than digital or AI capabilities. The company operates drip irrigation across all farms, uses integrated pest management (IPM) with beneficial predatory insects, parasitoids, and control nematodes, and employs falconry for bird deterrence at grape operations — supported by more than 20 years of scientific bird-surveillance data published in two technical books. A proprietary MBR (Membrane Bioreactor) wastewater treatment plant (PTAR) in Ica, operated under a 20-year contract with municipal utility EMAPICA signed in 2018, recycles municipal wastewater into agricultural irrigation and unlocks an additional 600 hectares of cultivation at Fundo La Catalina. Food safety and sustainability credentials — BRC, Global GAP (with SPRING, FSMA, GRASP add-ons), HACCP/BPM, SMETA, BASC — function as entry barriers for international buyers.

The business operates a direct B2B agro-export sales model: revenue is generated from one-time per-shipment or per-contract sales of perishable produce to international importers and distributors, with pricing negotiated bilaterally rather than publicly disclosed. The export portfolio is diversified across complementary seasonal windows — asparagus May–November, avocado April–September, grape October–January, blueberry July–February — enabling year-round shipping cadence. Marketing is conducted primarily through the bilingual agrokasa.com corporate website, a public product availability calendar, and recipe/health-benefit content that supports buyer engagement rather than direct consumer demand generation.
